About This Book
Condition & Size
From Whiskey to Water
Sam CowenLarge Paperback
���My name is Samantha and I���m an alcoholic.
���At the time of writing, I���ve been sober for 13 years, 11
months and 16 days. And yes I still count. I promised I
would never speak about it publicly until my children
understood what that meant, that mommy was an alcoholic.
I think they may have understood long before I did.���
From Whiskey to Water is the no-holds-barred memoir by
one of South Africa���s most loved radio talk show hosts, Sam
Cowen. Having kept her alcohol addiction well away from
the public eye for over 14 years, in this tell-all tale, Sam finds
the courage to talk about her struggle with her addiction
to whiskey, food and finally to a passion thatmming. Told in her characteristically
hilarious dead-pan style, this is one of the bravest books
youyear.
���So this is a book on how I stopped drinking? No, it���s
not. It���s how I stopped drinking, started eating, became
clinically severely obese, stopped eating (everything that
wasn���t nailed down) and swam my way to freedom. No, it���s
not. It���s actually about addiction and learning and sadness
and anxiety and love and drive. It���s about channelling the
unchangeable into the miraculous. It���s about dragons and
learning how to put them to sleep when you can���t slay them.
It���s about being my own Daenarys.���
